- An instructor was interested in how framing impacted her students' feelings about her grades. She randomly assiagned students to either receive positive ("This is an improvement") or negative ("You will still need to do a lot of work on this") feedback on an assignment. She further assigned students to a points lost (-10 points) or points gained (+90 condition) condition. After teach assignment was returned, she asked students to rate the fairness of their grades on a 10-point scale (0 = not fair at all, 10 = extremely fair). Points Lost Points Gained Mean Positive Feedback 7.8 7.9 7.85 Negative Feedback 4.3 5.5 4.9 Mean 6.05 6.7…arrow_forwardA mayor running for re-election claims that during his term, average municipal taxes have fallen by $125. A conscientious statistician wants to test this claim. He surveys 37 of his neighbors and finds that their taxes decreased (in dollars) as follows: 121, 139, 121, 125, 118, 145, 141, 91, 127, 136, 144, 154, 131, 139, 139, 125, 108, 130, 125, 106, 137, 148, 154, 134, 137, 112, 96, 114, 114, 126, 133, 129, 94, 129, 148, 163, 121 The statistician assumes a population standard deviation of $19. Do you think the statistician should reject the mayor's claim? Why or why not? Step 1: State the hypothesis. ?v= Step 2: Determine the Features of the Distribution of Point Estimates Using the Central Limit Theorem. By the Central Limit Theorem, we know that the point estimates are [Select an answer with distribution mean and distribution standard deviation Step 3: Assuming the Claim is True, Find the Probability of Obtaining the Point Estimate.
